That looks fabulous!

Black shelby tank installed. I did have to notch the plastic fan shroud for it to sit correctly.

Ordered a set of Rapid Red inlays for the GT500 and Shelby letters. View attachment 498991

Silver huh? Haven't seen that before. I'm sure it'll look good though.

I still haven't decided if I want to do those inlays, and what color they'd be.

I meant rapid red not silver I put red ones on a black GT350R and it looked good. Imo

When are you guys doing first oil changes by the way?

I was originally going to do it 500, all the high ups at the dealer the car came from said 800, and I've also heard 1000. Something about the transmission getting properly oiled, can't remember.

I did my SS at around 1000 in '17 iirc

Pulling from my crummy memory banks, I think many chose 500. I was one of them.

Just had ceramic pro coating and vinyl carbon fiber appearance stripes applied to my car. Really happy how it turned out.

Ray: They did a beautiful job on a tough color..congratulations and the stripes look spectacular on SB.

Since I have yet to do the same to my girl but will when the temps cool off a bit, I'm wondering if you know what brand and flavor of ceramic they used? TIA

They used Ceramic Pro products on the car. Its their Gold Package that includes one layer of Ceramic Pro Light and 4 layers of Ceramic Pro 9H. The windows and wheels were also treated. I also had them apply Xpel on the front and the rocker panels for a little added protection. All the Xpel and stripes were applied before the ceramic and then coated over.

They did do a nice job that's for sure, and it does look really good. I just don't have a thing for vinyl carbon fiber, or vinyl in general to be honest.

I'll say one more thing, definitely applied a million times better than the ones ford slaps on there. Planning on getting the CF hood vent to complete the trail so to speak?

Haven't thought about the CF hood vent, but that is a thought. And yes the installer said he coated a couple of other 2020 GT500s with factory vinyl stripes and he said the stripe work could have been better and did not follow the body lines.
